Just sent me a private message on Facebook in response to a message I sent him re the trials and tribulations of barracking for the saints...
Always suspected he was very genuine in his passion and his message confirmed it...he is suffering like all of us but the best thing is he still believes!
Told him about saintsational as well...would be great to hear from him sometime...
Great actor but above all he is a true believer and saint to the core ...
Never take a backward step even to gain momentum.....

Watched the GF draw the other night ( yes, I know), and am in no doubt of Erics passion for the Saints.
The footage cut to him on a number of occasions during the telecast. His passion for the Saints, is without a doubt, real, raw and as unbridled as any genuine, passionate, dyed-in-the-wool Sainter there ever was.
...In stark contrast to Julia's phoney token support of the Dogs.
The bloke is just the son of a migrant who lived in Airport West and who loves footy and cars, never doubted his passion.
Just happens to be an international superstar.
Spotted at least once at training a few years back. Dont know him from Adam, but seems a genuine sort of bloke, and the PM to Pat proves it.
We all share the common hurt of the past three GF's, be you a Hollywood megastar or Joe Average.
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)
Have a feeling his passion extended to half a million at sportsbet, too- might explain some of his reactions at the GF. $3 million slipped away with Milne's really unlucky bounce.
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'
I remember waching him being interviewedon tvone time, the commentator asked about an emotional scene in one of his pictures where he was crying, and what went through his mind that made the scene so realistic, was thinking of the 1997 gran final was the prompt response,and he was serious.

But yes, nice to see a high profile Sainter like Bana flying the Saints flag!
Thank God there's some younger high profile fans around (Eric, Geoff Ogilvy etc).
Molly just makes me cringe. He's looking more & more like something out of Weekend At Bernie's
Molly was bagging Raph on the radio during the year, was awful. Some supporter...
Cares more about the Storm these days.

No, I'm Eric...and to prove it I'll burst out singing..."Always look on the bright side of life"....talk about talking about the 2 Erics in the one thread.
